Scent مقابل Shalimar Parfum Initial

The r/fragrance community holds Costume National in high regard as an underrated Italian brand offering distinctive, quality fragrances with excellent unisex options like Scent Intense. While praised for unique creations and beautiful packaging, the brand suffers from poor distribution and limited visibility compared to mainstream designers, though those who discover it tend to become loyal enthusiasts.

Shalimar Parfum Initial was a beloved fragrance that has been discontinued, leaving collectors disappointed and unable to repurchase. While the reformulated successor L'Initial is quite close, community members note it lacks the distinctive powdery quality of the original, making it a solid but imperfect alternative for those who cherish the discontinued version.
